Nicolas recognized the telltale signs : his arms lead been dislocated The precision and brutalay of the technique were unmistakable , and Nicolas found it hard to believe Noelle had done this herself .

Damn n .

Who the hell are you ? Shadow growled , his vo his voice low and full of disbelief as he knelt on the ground glaring up at Noelle Shed approached him so silently and taken him down so cleanly .

It was as if hed been a novice , Mel Noelle blinked innocently , pointing to herself .

Shadow clearly didnt recognize her .

During her time with Eagle Blades , shed made sure to keep her identity hidden from most .

Before she could say more , Nicolas stepped forward , cutting off their exchange .

Who sent you to kill me ? Shadow sneered , his lips curling into a mocking grin .

You think Id tell you , huh ? He doesnt know , Noelle interjected casually , answering on Shadows behalf .

Shadow turned to her , stunned into silence .

He doesnt Nicolas frowned , shifting his gaze to Noelle .

Noelle confirmed with a nod and added .

Eagle Blades operates on a need to know basis .

The assassins only get assignments .

The contracts are handled by a separate department .

Shadows expression hardened as realization struck .

He fixed Noelle with a sharp , questioning glare .

How do you know so much about Eagle Blades Were you part of it ? His voor rose with anger .

You know the rules no internal attacks .

You dare to lay a hand on me , huh ? The organization wont let you on ? His outburst made Nicolass eyes flicker with unease .

He hadnt expected the organization to have such a rule , and the implications for Noelles safety were clear if Shadow found out more about her , it could get messy .
